Abstract: utility for synthesizing ecological and environmental data.
ELVIS (the Ecosystem Location Visualization and Information
System) is a suite of tools for constructing food webs for a given
location. ELVIS functionality is exposed as a collection of web
services, and all input and output data is expressed in OWL,
thereby enabling its integration with other semantic web
resources. In particular, we describe using a Triple Shop
application to answer SPARQL queries from a collection of
semantic web documents.
